When you forget to remember to forget
Faces you know but can not put to names
Forget your keys and they are in the door
I'm not about to tease the old anymore
I looked in my pocket and door key was gone
Rang the doorbell and no one was home
Searched an open window and the alarm went off
Couldn't remember how to turn the thing off
Thing remembered car had a garage door opener
Only the car was locked and keys were inside
Neighbor came and said might try your phone
It was left inside the house all alone
You can use mine but not a number could remember
Wife came home and said why didn't you use the spare
Looked under the mat and both keys were there
But I enjoy these days of puzzles and games
Each day is a maze of figuring things out
Alzheimer's is a serious illness not making light
This is just teasing me and my mental altruisms
I am not old enough to have---I'm---where's the mouse?
OH, right, that's the cellular phone I am clicking
Sorry dear that was me setting off the car alarm again
Trying to find the computer mouse or was it the cellular phone?
